I got these AVM457s recently. No need for spacers etc,,just bolt on and go.

Couldn't find them cheaper. Top Tip. Make sure you have a good Torx T15
bit as the cheap spanner supplied is rubbish.

The avm hubs will always get my vote. Easy to swap, reliable and a complete package no additional costs like spacers etc.
